Blake Bliss Self-released CD Updated: 05/15/08
Blake Bliss may be somewhat of a Myspace internet personality, but there is no denying the talent and drive this creative individual possesses. Known for his screaming vocal work in the psycho-electronic Canadian outfit VOSQQ, Blake Bliss goes solo this time, steering the journey on a thought provoking course, filled with bitter darkness and intrigue.
Opening up Betrayal Inc. is Heart Or Break, a reflective tune featuring a driving dance beat underscoring the uneasy verbal sentiments. Agony For Hire is another highlight, featuring Bliss rapping the compelling lyrical content. Never Let Go is another highlight, it’s eerie atmosphere combined with an essence of doomed romanticism. Best described as an imaginative mixture of Sage Francis and MC 900 Ft Jesus, on his own Bliss has achieved a thoroughly original work of art that is both honest, passionate, yet ultimately filled with a cautious drive in its admirable quest for hope and understanding. Fans of hip hop filtered through a dark reverie of sound will absolutely rejoice in what Blake Bliss has to offer. Be sure to check out his other band VOSQQ and prepare to have your senses thoroughly assaulted! Info: myspace.com/blakebliss!
